description: Capitalism's inherent social and economic inequality has long been identified and the burgeoning of the Occupy movement is testament to the fact that more and more of the populace throughout the world have experienced the incongruity between capitalist principles and egalitarian democracy. So now that we know we want something different, how do we go about actually changing an entire, complex system that has dramatically shaped the gene expression of our cells to the point where capitalist principles and capitalist emotional responses have become normalized? The answer is to adventure within, to get vulnerable with capitalism! Join me as I reveal everything you need to know about my finances, how capitalist principles influence my emotional responses in relation to my art practice and my numerous attempts at love. How my parents immigrated from Korea to seek the American dream and ended up in prison to provide me and my brother with a privileged life (I'm not the only one in my family who's been to the penitentiary!). Robert's money playlist.
